Ideas and Suggestions for Meetup

Meetup Uservoice is a space where you can show support for your favorite feature suggestions on Meetup.

You can subscribe to Meetup product updates and releases via the ‘Get what’s new emails’ option on our What’s new page: http://www.meetup.com/whats_new/

Please report abuse complaints or bug reports through normal support channels (http://www.meetup.com/help/).

PLEASE READ!!

- Please vote on existing ideas instead of adding duplicates
- Insults and rants will result in an immediate account ban

What new feature would you like to see on Meetup, and why?

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".
(thinking…)

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

If a similar idea already exists, you can vote and comment on it.

If it doesn't exist, you can post your idea so others can vote on it.

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

  • Top ideas
  • New ideas
  1. Bring back the "IDEAS" instead of "Meetups in the making"

    I don't like that any and all of members' suggestions show up on the calendar immediately. I MUCH prefer the old format where ideas/suggestions remained off the calendar until the Organizer/s decided to MAKE them into an event!!

    • FIX ALL THE GOOGLE MAPS! All the locations in the 'New Meetup' are all now WRONG

      All the locations of our NH Meetups that WORKED BEFORE ARE NOW WRONG! Great enhancement. Now new members are LOST trying to get to old locations. Just gets worse and worse here.

          • Option to disable news feed

            It would be nice to disable the news feed completely. Since most of the stuff posted is by people, I dont know, removing them, gives me more space to see the events.

            • Allow an organizer to toggle between the detailed meetup list and an abbreviated "list view."

              When we have 30+ upcoming events, it's very tedious to scroll down, and page down the main list to reference, make edits or copy an event.

              Could we please have a "list view" the way that most calendar software does? Can you give us a page view where we can see our list of upcoming, and past, meetups in a simple line by line format list that just uses the event title?

              • Require a date for suggested meetups

                I would like to require dates for event suggestions? The problem is if if a suggested meetup doesn't have a date then it never goes away...

                    • I would like to have the notifications and reminders changed to include what date is refered to

                      I would like the notifications that are sent from meetup that "Bob has said he was going to..." to include the date of the event in the body of the email. I don't like to have to go to the site and find what is being talked about

                        • Add features to meetup everywhere

                          I would love meetup everywhere if i could use some meetup group features such as email members directly or create organizers.

                          • Make the signup process more intuitive if online payment is optional

                            In our meetups, attendees have the option of paying online through PayPal, or paying offline when they arrive. We have received many complaints from group members about being forced to pay through PayPal when they want to pay offline. After some investigation, we discovered that members who want to pay offline need to not put a check mark next to the statement where they agree to the refund policy. If they don't check this off, they are not taken to PayPal.

                            This is extremely unintuitive and confusing. Instead, I would recommend having 2 buttons: one for paying online and one…

                            • Switch the whats coming up and the rsvp/message board info around.

                              I think some members forget to check the message board and see whats new there, because it is not at the top of the page. So I think it would be good to switch the what's coming up with the rsvp's & message board info. Also that would be a good way to promote meetups to be able to see that your friends are attending.

                                MAYBES are now NO SHOWS? With these changes to MeetUp, people who have previously RSVP's to events with a MAYBE (these MAYBE rsvp's go back to 2008 in my group) are now showing up as NO SHOWS in their Member Stats. I'm the Owner/Lead Organizer of my grouops and I have NEVER NO SHOW'd. Suddenly, I have 13 NO SHOWS?! No, I had 13 MAYBEs that have been magically converted into NO SHOWS. Ridiculous. Fix This NOW!

                                  • Give the organizer the final decision whether to remove any person or member for whatever reason

                                    Including the situation where the emails are non existent or the members have not logged in for 6 months. Some members are receiving emails despite the notifications to the contrary : Also some members dont log in but are still active in the memberships and depend on emailers that they are receiving despite the notifications that indicate otherwise.

                                      • Only Yes RSVP's on Google Calendar Sync

                                        I am overloaded on my calendar with events that I'm not going to because they conflict with or events or work. I would like to have an option to turn off all the events I RSVP no. I don't mind the ones I don't RSVP because usually I'm deciding if I can afford it. Do you think you can help my overloaded calendar?

                                        • allow pictures within meetups again!

                                          The map feature isn't all that. A picture is worth so much when you want people to come on a new hike or to attend a new place. A picture gets higher attendance.
